  • 2020 Inspection Results and Adopted New Performance Lists for Flag States and Recognized Organizations (Ros)
    Press release 15 June 2021 Performance lists Paris MoU The Paris MoU Committee approved at its 54th me eting the 2020 inspection results and adopted new performance lists for flag States and Recognized Organizations (ROs). These lists will take effect from the 1st of July 2021. The “White, Grey and Black (WGB) List” presents the full spectrum, from quality flags to flags with a poor performance that are considered high or very high risk. It is based on the total number of inspections and detentions during a 3-year rolling period for flags with at least 30 inspections in the period. The “White List” represents quality flags with a consistently low detention record. Flags with an average performance are shown on the “Grey List”. Their appearance on this list may serve as an incentive to improve and move to the “White List”. At the same time flags at the lower end of the “Grey List” should be careful not to neglect control over their ships and risk ending up on the “Black List” next year. Regarding the “White, Grey and Black List” for 2020, a total number of 70 flags are listed: 39 on the “White List”, 22 on the “Grey List” and 9 on the “Black List”. In 2019 the total number of flag States on the list was also 70 of which 41 on the “White List”, 16 on the “Grey List” and 13 on the “Black List”. For several years the Committee has closely monitored the performance of ROs acting on behalf of flag States. To calculate the performance of ROs, the same formula to calculate the excess factor of the flags is used.

  • Transferring Personal Data in Asia
    Transferring Personal Data in Asia: A path to legal certainty and regional convergence This Comparative Review sets out proposals for how Asian public stakeholders may promote legal certainty and greater consistency between their respective laws and regulations on cross-border transfers of personal data in the region. Despite differences between the philosophies and the regulatory structures of each regime, there exist enough connecting points between national frameworks which lawmakers, governments, and data protection regulators can capitalize on, so as to promote and ensure responsible data flows between jurisdictions. Interoperability would be further enhanced by a common movement to align the standards by which legal grounds, mechanisms, and schemes for data transfers should be assessed. Alignment should be with a similarly high level of data protection so as to improve the situation of individuals and facilitate multi- jurisdictional compliance, as well as regulatory cooperation. Alignment not just to a regional standard but to global standards is a worthwhile goal, especially given the integration of Asian economies in global trade and the increased privacy expectations of the Asian public. This Review is supported by a comprehensive comparative Table of the rules relating to the transfer of personal data in 14 Asian jurisdictions.
